Patience

They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. (Isaiah 40:31)


Learning lots these past few months.  Patience is probably the biggest thing.
Our house has been on the market since the first week of March. We really thought it would sell quickly, but the shared driveway seems to be a bigger issue to people that we thought it was. We have a conditional offer, but they have a house to sell before they can buy ours, and they have now extended the allowed time they have to sell their house for another 30 plus days.
We just have to wait.
Wait to sell, wait to buy. Patience. 
But, we are content. Summer is here, and we are enjoying it.  
The kids spend the days swimming, building forts, climbing trees, swinging, and running around the yard adventuring:-)
Our next home has a very long want list, ( I said want, not need:-) but a big yard, and some space would be lovely.
Praying that our house sells soon, so that by the fall we could be into a new home. So that schooling can be figured out.  Praying that we can find the right home for us. Always praying for patience, and understanding.

A picture of the basement fort the kids build on rainy days... two couches turned on sides with blankets and pillows.... always a hit:-)
